Podcasts about Bassam

For artists and others in creative fields of work, it can be challenging to build a steady, livable income while also pursuing their passion. Real estate investing can help accomplish exactly that. In this episode, Andrew is joined by Bassam, an actor and real estate investor. After a decade-long career in finance, he was let go for being a whistleblower, which caused him to go after his dream of becoming an actor. After co-starring in multiple big-budget Hollywood productions, he realized that in order to continue acting long-term, he needed to create a more reliable income stream. He's now using real estate investing to build consistent income and generate wealth for himself and his family while continuing to work in the acting industry.The Cashflow For Life podcast is about one thing: using real estate investing as a tool to create consistent cashflow every month for the rest of your life. Our mission is to help everyone in America buy their first 5 properties in the next 2 years, and have them paid off in 7 years. This is the 2-5-7 Cashflow For Life philosophy. Tune in to witness how ordinary people in our community have put this philosophy into action to increase their net worth and create consistent monthly cashflow as they continue their journey to build wealth for themselves and their families.==============Connect with us! ==============Facebook: @andrewholmesrealestate IG: @andrewholmesre

In this episode, Celestia co-founder Mustafa Al-Bassam dives deep into how lazy bridging and data availability sampling are rethinking crypto's scalability. Starting with the historical context of Bitcoin's block size wars, Mustafa explains how Celestia's architecture finally resolves the tension between bigger blocks and decentralization. The conversation explores the trade-offs between modular and integrated blockchain designs, the role of ZK proofs in scaling, and why light nodes may be more crucial than validators for true decentralization.

Nourhan Bassam Ph.D. (Feminist Urbanist, Ph.D Urban, Design & Placemaking, Founding Director The Gendered City, The Gendered City Author, FEM. DES. Network Creator) The Book ⁠https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0CPB49Y4D⁠⁠https://genderedcity.org⁠ The NetworkFEM. DES  ⁠https://genderedcity.org/fem-des⁠⁠https://femurbanatlas.com⁠ Nourhan Bassam is a feminist urbanist and architect with a Ph.D. in Urban Design and Placemaking. She is the founder of The Gendered City, an initiative that began as a book and has grown into an organization dedicated to building gender-equal cities through feminist placemaking and active citizen participation. Nourhan also launched FEM.DES., the world's largest feminist design network, bringing together over 350 experts from more than 35 countries to support and advance gender-equitable urban environments. The Gendered City collaborates with numerous global partners, including UN-Habitat's HERCITY, and primarily focuses on social justice in the built environment through its parent organization, GamingX. As a research professor, Nourhan mentors Master's students in placemaking and feminist spatialities, guiding the next generation of urban thinkers. Her book, The Gendered City explores the challenges women face in urban spaces and has been sold in over 23 countries around the world. Her upcoming book, Feminist Spatialities, will analyze 50 feminist projects in cities, further expanding the conversation on inclusive urban design." The Gendered City Book How Cities Keep Failing WomenThe Gendered City book aims to illuminate the intricate richness and complexities of urban lives by exploring the experiences of diverse groups, encompassing women, men, and various identities. Through this exploration, we seek to understand the interconnectedness between urban environments and gendered experiences. Employing an intersectional feminist lens to analyze the physical structures of the built environment. Dismantling gender as a rigid category and examining how it influences our interactions and encounters with the world. Gender is not an immutable or homogeneous construct; it intersects with other social categories such as race, class, and sexuality. This intersectionality reveals how these diverse identity dimensions overlap and intersect, resulting in unique experiences of oppression and privilege for individuals.Drawing inspiration from those who have paved the way, we aspire to a world where individuals can thrive irrespective of their gender, sexuality, ethnicity, or background. We envision cities as places of hope, potential, transformation, and innovation. In collaboration with Placemaking Week Europe, 2024, Rotterdam.

As Ethereum's roadmap shifted to a rollup-centric approach, a plethora of rollups have been launched, to the point where L3s have been conceptualized. Celestia sits at the forefront of modularity as it aims to replace the monolithic blockchain architecture with specialized layers that are more suited for scalability and customization. As a result, Celestia strictly focuses on data availability to accommodate the recent rollup expansion, as data storage represents the largest portion of fees on L2s. The Lemongrass upgrade lays the foundation for further use cases being enabled through Celestia, mainly revolving around interoperability and zk proof enabled ‘lazy bridging'. Topics covered in this episode:The vision behind CelestiaRollup architectureCentralised sequencers and the role of fraud proofsCelestia's market shareRollkit & sovereign rollupsGovernance & light clientsThe importance of decentralisation: L1s vs. rollupsCelestia's data availability capacityLatency & Celestia block timesInteroperability & ‘lazy bridging'The Lemongrass upgradeOn-chain economics & value accrualInterchain accounts on CelestiaCrypto's mainstream adoptionFuture roadmapEpisode links:Mustafa Al-Bassam on TwitterIsmail Khoffi on TwitterCelestia on TwitterSponsors:Gnosis: Gnosis builds decentralized infrastructure for the Ethereum ecosystem, since 2015.

Today's guests are Oliver Heys and James Bassam of Surf Life Saving.   Surf Life Saving is Australia's premier water safety, drowning prevention, and rescue organization. With 129 Surf Life Saving Clubs and over 77,000 members, it's one of the largest not-for-profit volunteer movements in Australia, dedicated to saving lives on the beach.  A standout feature within Surf Life Saving is the Australian Uncrewed Aerial Vehicle Service, operating the largest coastal UAV surveillance program in the Southern Hemisphere. The Australian UAV Services uses drones to monitor sharks off the coast of New South Wales, enhancing bather protection while minimizing harm to sharks and other marine life. Oliver, Surf Life Savings Chief Remote Pilot & Capability Coordinator, oversees regulatory compliance and brings a wealth of experience since joining the organization in 2020. Oliver's dedication to the UAV industry earned him a finalist spot for the Remotely Piloted Aircraft Professional of the Year at the Australian Aviation Safety Awards in 2023. James is the Australian UAV Service Operations Manager for Safety and Compliance. With a background in crewed aviation and roles as a Commercial Pilot, Flight Instructor, and Head Teacher of Aviation, James leads the operational delivery team. He has spearheaded numerous projects to enhance the capabilities of the Australian UAV Service. In 2023, Surf Life Saving introduced long-range drones to monitor the coastal waters of New South Wales. This cost-effective, non-invasive technology has been successful in ensuring the safety of swimmers and surfers while minimizing the impact on marine life. The public response has been overwhelmingly positive, with increased confidence in water safety where UAVs are deployed. In this episode of the Drone Radio Show, Oliver and James discuss Surf Life Savings, the use of drones to monitor sharks and the evolution of Australia's long range UAV coastal monitoring program.

Bassam and Cat rekindle their Artist Forge connection and dig into his discovery of photography and spending a year mastering his skillsets in lighting, and posing,  and upon his completion of that first year (2016) he exited his career as a VP in Aerospace. Bassam maintained a consultancy arm to stay connected in that industry for small and medium businesses but dove in headfirst in building his portrait business after assisting a friend on their photo shoot and discovering the joy that comes in photography. He was hooked on day one and hasnt looked back since!As things happen and unfold once a decision is made, Bassam rented a shared studio space, spent a year portfolio building, and made connections within the industry with Pratik Naik, Bella Kotak, Sue Bryce and more. Bassam and Cat recap the milestones of his career as a portrait photographer and then they go even deeper into challenges as a male boudoir photographer (challenges in marketing) and address the sales process to encourage larger sales. Bassam has consistently been selling his largest package (what a problem to have right?) but within this conversation he and Cat uncovered an area where he may have been leaving money on the proverbial table. This conversation is not to be missed!Bassam is such a brilliant business mind and paired with his artistry is a force!

Bassam Aramin and Rami Elhanan (peace activists with Parent's Circle) are the two protagonists from Colum McCann's Booker-Prize-longlisted book Apeirogon. Both lost their daughters to the conflict, ten years apart. Yet in spite of – or because of - this horror they became dedicated friends, or “brothers”, committed to opposing the Israeli occupation of Palestine and working with “the enemy” via Parent's Circle, a peace group set up for parents from “both sides” who've lost a child.I spoke to Bassam and Rami on day #169 in the conflict and they'd just come from seeing the Pope. We cover how Bassam decided to study the Holocaust while imprisoned in an Israeli jail as a teenager for seven years, why Israelis are trapped by their victimhood and how we've all been locked into seeing this conflict as a football game of two sides.This interview is a chapter in an incredible story that involves a big-time Hollywood actor, who reached out to me while I was camping in remote Western Australia, a secondhand book find, a six-way email chain and an incredible love that reaches across history, walls and global fragmentation. NOTE: I will cover the very intersecting story of how we (the dads, Colum, the actor and I met) in the next episode.

It's one thing to tell a story, it's another to do it in a way that does justice to the topic. In much of the discussion of Palestine, the focus lies squarely on Palestinians largely in relation to their interactions to the Zionist project. But there it more to dive into, and more to discuss beyond simple counter-hasbara. Partisan Brigade member James is joined by Bassam, the brains behind the podcast PreOccupation: A Not-So-Brief History of Palestine to talk about his work and the critical importance of how we frame and discuss Palestinian history, and how doing so effectively can be an effective means of inoculating people against hasbara before we even have to get to the point of refuting it.

The ongoing war between Israel and Hamas in Gaza has resulted in catastrophic suffering for the civilian population. In a devastating situation where hope seems distant, it is important to remember that war is not the solution. Palestinian Bassam Aramin and Israeli Rami Elhanan have both lost a daughter in the conflict. But instead of succumbing to bitterness and hatred, they have joined forces to work for peace. How did they manage to overcome hatred? Bassam Aramin is a former Palestinian freedom fighter born and raised in Hebron. He was imprisoned at the age of 17 and spent seven years in an Israeli prison. Rami Elhanan is an Israeli Jew from Jerusalem and was a combatant soldier in the Yom Kippur War in 1973. Bassam lost his 10-year-old daughter Abir in 1997, she was killed by Israeli border police right in front of her school. Rami lost his 14-year-old daughter Smadar in 1983 in a Hamas-led suicide attack in Jerusalem. Despite the circumstances, the two have become close friends, and have dedicated their lives to working together for peace between Palestinians and Israelis through the organization The Parents Circle - a group for Israeli and Palestinian parents who have lost children in the conflict. Their friendship is a living testament to the transformative power of empathy and compassion, challenging us to imagine a world where peace and reconciliation are not just a dream but an achievable reality - if the parties dare to do so. We invite you to a conversation with Bassam and Elhanan where the two share their story and reflections on the ongoing war, and what is required for reconciliation and a future of peace.

Bassam Aramin and Rami Elhanan became ‘brothers' due to the most painful loss of their daughters at different times due to the intractable Israel and Palestine conflict. Bassam Aramin, Palestinian, and Rami Elhanan, Israeli, are members of The Parents Circle – Families Forum (PCFF), families whose lives have been upended due to tragedy. However, instead of giving into hate, each member has worked to understand and listen to the other side. They have become friends and advocate constantly for solidarity and peace in their land. Luxembourg hosts the Festival des Migrations this weekend, and will showcase the documentary film, ‘The Narrow Bridge', written, directed and produced by Esther Takac in 2022. This film features the stories of Rami and Bassam, Meytal and Bushra who have all lost loved ones. Their hope, as a group of bereaved families, is to catalyse communities to stop the senseless killing on both sides. Bassam and Rami have been invited to Luxembourg once more by Martine Kleinberg, the President of Jewish Call for Peace. They were here previously in 2018. JCP a small association founded in 2021, to give Luxembourg a different Jewish voice on the Israeli-Palestinian conflict and to fight against anti-Semitic stereotypes and prejudices, especially when linked to the conflict in Israel-Palestine. The Parents Circle – Families Forum PCFF aims to lay a path towards a reconciliation process on how to live together in peace with equal respect for one another. My guests: Bassam Aramin lost his 10 years old daughter Abir on the 16th January 2007. She was killed by an Israeli border policemen in front of her school in Anata, East Jerusalem. Rami Elhanan is a 7th generation Jerusalemite. He lost his daughter Smadar on her first day of the school year in September 1997, aged just 14. Two Palestinian suicide bombers murdered 5 people that day, of which three were girls aged 14.

Saudi Arabia's got some crazy desert vibes going on, I'm talking about vast stretches of sand that'll make you feel like you're stranded on Mars. So, naturally, only about 20% of the place is populated because, let's face it, not too many folks are into setting up camp in scorching hot deserts. Plus, most of the country's resources and cities are concentrated in the more habitable regions along the coasts and near oases. The rest? Well, it's basically a giant sandbox with occasional cities popping up like mirages in the distance. But hey, at least it keeps the real estate prices down for those who are adventurous enough to call the desert home! Credit: CC BY 2.0 https://creativecommons.org/licenses/...

Paris-based DJ and co-founder of record label Distrikt Paris, Bassam, is known for his sought-after eclectic selection and sharp technique. Bassam has been shaking dancefloors across France and Europe at large, and this year, he released his debut album ‘Clockwise Rhapsody'. For our latest Select, Bassam will provide you with an intimate glimpse into his sonic universe with an hour and 43-minute set, featuring sweltering house beats that feel as if they were pulled out of an 80s arcade.

Today we're joined by Mustafa Al-Bassam, CEO and Co-Founder of Celestia Labs. 15 years after Satoshi, we finally have what a blockchain actually is Celestia provides the ability to publish data and make sure that data is available. Celestia had what many are calling one of the best launches of 2023, and they are the first Data Availability Layer live today. In our conversation we get into how Mustafa built Celestia, other Data Availability Layers in the space, how Celestia can be thought of as a bulletin board for computers with some cryptographic and economic assurances - computers posting info so everyone can see it. It's so simple. It's an obvious fundamental building block. Yet they were the first to do it. Prior to Celestia, Mustafa was generally known for his expertise in ethical hacking. He had the US government at the age of 16 and was sentenced for it. We get into this and so much more, but first to ground the conversation, Mustafa shares what he is focused on at Celestia today. 0:00 Intro 1:10 Mustafa Al-Bassam 8:45 Hacking the US Government 10:47 Lazy Ledger 14:13 Colab with Vitalik 16:00 Challenges 18:00 DA and Celestia within Blockchain 19:27 Modular Blockchain 21:54 Monolithic Chains 24:55 Celestia within Cosmos 25:40 Celestia technicals 29:08 Requirements to run a node 35:05 The Graph vs Celestia 36:42 Developer experience 38:23 Starting fresh 40:21 Advice for teams 41:10 Celestia's culture 43:27 Payments 45:10 Decentralized Stablecoins ✨ Check out our new website ✨ https://thedefiant.io/

On this edition of Parallax Views, we dive into Israel/Palestine history, including such troubling topics as the Nakba (the ethnic cleansing of Palestinians in 1948) and the Tantura Massacre (as well as it's suppression in Israel and Israeli academia), with noted historian Ilan Pappe. Alongside figures like Benny Morris and Avi Shlaim, Pappe was one of the Israeli "New Historians" who shed light on aspects of Zionist and Israeli history (specifically the founding of Israel) that challenged conventional/traditional narratives. Joining me as a guest co-host on this edition of the program is "Karl Barx" (or Bassam) of the West Bank Robbery podcast. The conversation begins with Prof. Pappe offering his thoughts on the ongoing Israeli bombardment of Gaza which has claimed 20,000+ lives. We then delve into Prof. Pappe's journey away from political Zionism and taking a critical approach intellectually to the history of Israel and its policies. In this we regard, we end up discussing the impact of Israel's 1982 invasion of Lebanon, the first Intifada, and Prof. Pappe's service in the IDF. During the course of our conversation, we also cover: - Propaganda, dehumanization of Palestinians, and the ways in which propaganda lays upon layers of history - What has changed in Israeli narratives before the October 7th Hamas attack and now? - The argument that once Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and the Likud Party are gone the Israeli center or Israeli left will be able to change the Israel/Palestine situation in a radical way - Laying out the two camps within elite Israeli politics; the Israeli messianic far-right (the state of Judea) vs. secular Zionists (the state of Israel); how do Palestinians see the internal political dynamic between the two camps? - Prof. Pappe's archival work as a historian; the documents he went through showing evidence of the ethnic cleansing/expulsion of of Palestinians in 1948; declassification laws in Israel; the "Village Files" and their importance to Prof. Pappe's scholarship; suppression and reclassification of historical documents; the importance of copying and preserving documents; the importance of juxtaposing different archives - Plan Dalet or Plan D as the blueprint for the destruction of Palestinian villages and the expulsion of Palestinians in 1948; Direct Orders documentation and the specific importance of Order #40 of 1948 in relation to Israeli settlements and what is happening in Gaza today; the names of Israeli operations in the 20th century and why the specific names are important in regards to what they tells us about Israeli policy towards Palestinians - Yitzhak Rabin, The Jordanian Option, and the mass arrest of Palestinian activists in the 1970s; the origins of Israeli policies seeking to attack secular, left-wing Palestinian activists and promoting Islamic, right-wing factions at the expense of those left-wing elements as a divide-and-conquer strategy - The Tantura Massacre, micro-history, the suppression of the Tantura massacre in Israeli society and Israeli academia, and how both Prof. Pappe and one of his students, Theodore Katz, suffered major academic setback due to said student investigating the massacre; a brief rundown of the Katz Affair and the ways in which Katz and Pappe were both later vindicated in regard to the Tantura case - The myths about Israel with a particular focus on Nakba denial and Joan Peters' historically inaccurate From Time Immemorial; what Prof. Pappe considers the most noxious myths about Israel - Noam Chomsky and the question of political Zionism vs. cultural Zionism; the One Democratic State Campaign and protections for Jewish identity in a one-state Israel; where Prof. Pappe potentially disagree or takes issue with the political vs. cultural Zionism distinction - And more!

Alors qu'Israël poursuit son offensive meurtrière sur Gaza, un pays limitrophe assiste avec inquiétude et colère au conflit : la Jordanie. Depuis 1948 et la création de l'état hébreu, le royaume hachémite a reçu plusieurs centaines de milliers de réfugiés palestiniens, à tel point qu'aujourd'hui, ils représentent plus de la moitié de la population. De notre correspondante de retour de Zarqa,À une trentaine de kilomètres au nord de la capitale Amman, Zarqa a vu naître le premier camp de réfugiés palestiniens de Jordanie en 1949. Aujourd'hui, 75 ans plus tard, 21 000 habitants y vivent dans des immeubles vétustes.Nasr Nasr, 53 ans, a grandi dans le camp. Il est un descendant de réfugiés venus de Jaffa en 1948, lors de la « Nakba », l'exil de 750 000 palestiniens considéré comme la grande catastrophe. Il est d'origine palestinienne et a la nationalité jordanienne. Comme l'immense majorité, il est devenu citoyen jordanien. Une situation exceptionnelle au Moyen-Orient où les palestiniens n'ont pas été intégrés dans leur pays d'accueil. « Je bénéficie de tous les droits des citoyens jordaniens, témoigne Nasr Nasr. C'est pour cela que quand on me demande qui je suis, je réponds que je suis – comme qui dirait – Jordostinien. »Très attaché à la transmission de la mémoire, Nasr a conservé un album de photo de ses grands-parents. Il aime partager ces souvenirs avec sa fille Nowar, 22 ans. « Cette photo a été prise sur la plage de Jaffa, montre-t-il. Elle date de 1946. Toutes les photos qui sont dans cet album ont été prises par mes grands-parents. »« Nous vivons ici en Jordanie comme dans notre seconde maison, témoigne à son tour Nowar. Ce n'est pas vraiment chez nous. C'est vrai que j'ai vécu 22 ans en Jordanie, mais je rêve de vivre en Palestine. Même si je n'y suis pas née, la Palestine reste le chemin à suivre. »À lire aussiEn Jordanie, le mouvement palestinien Hamas gagne en popularité« Nous restons des réfugiés, nous sommes comme des invités en Jordanie »Un chemin à suivre au nom du droit au retour censé être garanti par le droit international. La Résolution 194 des Nations Unies votée en 1948 n'a depuis jamais été respectée par Israël.En attendant, Nasr et sa fille bénéficient de tous les avantages de la nationalité jordanienne, mais d'autres sont toujours considérés comme des étrangers. Bassam el-Hawajreh est originaire de la bande de Gaza. Comme lui, 160 000 Gazaouis n'ont jamais obtenu la citoyenneté jordanienne, car ils sont arrivés dans le royaume plus tard, après la guerre des Six Jours de 1967. « Ici, nous restons des réfugiés, nous sommes comme des invités en Jordanie, rapporte-t-il. Dès qu'il se passe quelque chose en Palestine, je me sens palestinien. Quand je dois faire des papiers, je me sens comme un réfugié. »Bloqués dans les limbes de l'administration, les Gazaouis n'ont pas le droit de travailler dans la fonction publique, pas d'accès à l'assurance maladie et doivent payer des frais bien supérieurs à leurs moyens pour faire des études universitaires.À lire aussi« On partage leur souffrance »: les Palestiniens de Cisjordanie solidaires des victimes de Gaza

On this edition of Parallax Views, a double feature continuing our coverage of Israel/Palestine. First up, Democratic Socialists of America member and Jacobin contributor Yaseen Al-Sheikh (aka Y.L. Al-Sheikh) joins the show to discuss the DSA perspective on the Gaza War and Israel/Palestine. We'll also be hearing Yaseen's perspective as a Palestinian. And yes, we do cover the controversy around the DSA that has arisen in the media since the October 7th Hamas attack. On the second segment of the show, Bassam of the West Bank Robbery podcast joins as special guest co-host to speak with Belgium-based French author, filmmaker, and longtime pro-Palestinian activist Frank Barat. Frank has interviewed such influential figures as philosopher Judith Butler, UN Special Rapporteur Francesca Albanese, and Israeli historian Ilan Pappe on issues related to Israel's bombing of Gaza and Palestinian liberation. Frank will talk about his involvement with the Palestinian cinema/film community, his work with the Russell Tribunal on Palestine, and more.

La Côte d'Ivoire a perdu l'essentiel de son couvert de mangroves au cours des dernières décennies. Ces forêts d'arbres aquatiques, composées principalement des palétuviers, jouent pourtant un rôle essentiel dans la sécurité alimentaire des populations locales et dans la préservation de l'environnement. Reportage à Grand-Bassam, ville côtière à 30 km d'Abidjan. De notre envoyée spéciale à Grand-Bassam,Les mangroves étaient une composante essentielle du paysage de Grand-Bassam et des villages alentour. De 500 hectares, ces forêts amphibies n'en couvrent plus qu'une trentaine aujourd'hui. Au village d'Azuretti, le président des jeunes Crépin Akesse se souvient de leur splendeur passée.« Il y a encore 25 ans de cela, toute la berge était couverte de mangroves, toute la berge. Comme ces petites oasis que vous voyez là. Et à l'intérieur des terres, sur au moins 30 mètres, il y avait des mangroves partout. Mais quand il y a eu le développement de la ville ici, les promoteurs immobiliers sont arrivés et ont décapé beaucoup de terrains. Ils ont détruit toute la mangrove. On s'est opposés, avec les moyens qu'on a... Au niveau du village, on a mené des manifestations en 2017 et 2018, on est allé s'opposer à la coupe de mangroves, on a fait des courriers à l'administration… Mais ils sont restés lettre morte. »Des pratiques de pêche néfastesCertaines pratiques traditionnelles peuvent aussi menacer les mangroves. Les palétuviers sont parfois coupés pour être utilisés comme bois de chauffe, ou pour fumer le poisson. En mars dernier, l'Union européenne a financé une opération de sensibilisation et de plantage d'arbres à Azuretti. Le frère du chef du village, François Esou, qui vit sur cette parcelle de terre, doit protéger les jeunes palétuviers contre les pêcheurs, équipés de filets de type « épervier ».« C'est les pêcheurs, souvent quand ils viennent avec leurs pirogues, ils lancent leurs éperviers sur les mangroves… Moi, je leur défends de faire ça. Parce que quand ils les lancent dessus, en tirant les filets, ça déterre les palétuviers. Souvent, ils pêchent la nuit. La nuit, je ne suis pas là pour les surveiller, mais la journée, je m'occupe de ça, je veille sur eux. »Des zones essentielles pour la biodiversité localeLes conséquences de la destruction des mangroves sont dramatiques, à la fois pour les populations locales et pour l'environnement. Ce sont des zones de fret, explique le géographe Séka Fernand Ayenon, où les espèces aquatiques viennent se reproduire.« Ce sont des zones très importantes qui permettent une régénérescence des espèces aquatiques. Vous voyez, regardez au fond, on a une multitude de poissons. Si toutes ces zones de mangroves sont détruites, vous verrez qu'on n'aura même plus de poissons. En plus de cela, ce sont des zones qui captent le carbone. Les mangroves captent dix fois plus de carbone qu'une forêt terrestre. Et en plus de cela, elles empêchent l'érosion côtière. »La Côte d'Ivoire a signé en 1971 la convention internationale Ramsar pour la protection des zones humides, mais seuls deux territoires sont concernés : Fresco au sud-ouest du pays, et les îles Ehotilé près d'Assinie. Les défenseurs de l'environnement espèrent voir le gouvernement étendre cette protection à l'ensemble des mangroves ivoiriennes, pour sauver celles qui peuvent encore l'être.À lire aussiLes zones humides au Bénin, des alliées contre le changement climatique

When designing spaces, why is a feminist lens important? What might egalitarian social spaces look and feel like? How might museums, parks and cities be designed differently to include the needs of women, caregivers and girls? Historically,  a male-centric perspective has been dominant in the design of spaces - particularly cities - which has led to a series of decisions and standards with long-term consequences on the experiences of others, including women and girls, people with diverse gender expressions, racial and ethnic minority groups, neurodivergent groups and other under-represented people.  In this episode, we talk with Nourhan Bassam - a leader and innovator in the field of Feminist Urban Design. We discuss safety, ease of mobility, how the 'othered' groups may travel through and across spaces differently and more frequently. Impacts on indoor and outdoor museum, public and parks spaces include navigation, orientation, feeling and experiencing ease and safety.  Some of these measures have been discussed and implemented in museum and cultural spaces, but there is still much to learn from applying a feminist lens the designs of museum buildings, museum experiences, public spaces, cultural spaces, and connection experiences like transportation and arrival to your site.  Nourhan hopes by raising awareness about the barriers faced by women and the many othered groups, her work will inspire individuals, communities, and policymakers to take action and create spaces and cities that are safe, inclusive, and empowering for all.

After seven weeks of war between Hamas and Israel, there was a deal for a pause in the fighting. On Friday morning the rockets and gunfire fell silent in Gaza. The agreement also included the release of Palestinians in Israeli prisons and Israeli hostages held in Gaza; plus more aid deliveries to the people of Gaza. After so much trauma and anger, host James Reynolds hears from those who say there has to be another way than war. He talks with two members of Parents for Peace - an organisation consisting of both Israeli and Palestinian parents who have lost children throughout decades of conflict. A Palestinian sniper killed Robi Damelin's 22-year-old son, David, in 2002. An Israeli soldier killed Bassam Aram's 10-year-old daughter, Abir, with a rubber bullet, outside her school in 2007. Today, Robi and Bassam are united in using their grief positively for peace and to help others who continue to suffer the consequences of war. “Instead of building more graves, they need to try to move on with this pain, to use it as a motivation,” says Bassam. “To build more bridges for peace for the memory of their beloved one.” We also hear how two Israelis are coping under the strain of not seeing their relatives; knowing they are probably being held hostage in Gaza, but are unlikely to be released as part of the current deal.

Industrial Talk is onsite at the OMG Quarterly Standards Meeting and chatting with Bassam Zarkout, Executive Vice President with IGnPower about "Digital Transformation - trustworthy standards and strategies for implementation success". The following are some key digital transformation takeaways for our conversation: Digital transformation is a process of using digital technologies to change the way an organization operates. It is a journey that may take time and effort, but it is essential for organizations that want to remain competitive in the digital age. There are three phases of digital transformation: digitization, digitalization, and digital transformation. Digitization is the process of converting analog information into digital form. Digitalization is the use of digital technologies to improve business processes. Digital transformation is the use of digital technologies to create new business models and value propositions. Organizations need to start by assessing their current state of digital maturity and defining their goals for digital transformation. They also need to develop a clear roadmap for implementation and measure the success of their initiatives. Digital transformation is not without challenges, but the benefits can be significant. Here are some additional points that were made in the conversation: The term "digital transformation" is often used loosely, but it is important to understand the three distinct phases of the process. Many organizations are still in the early stages of digital transformation, but the pace of change is accelerating. Organizations that do not embrace digital transformation risk being left behind by their competitors. Digital transformation can help organizations improve their efficiency, productivity, and customer service. It can also help them create new products and services and enter new markets. The benefits of digital transformation can be significant, but it is important to carefully plan and execute the process.

What is Syria's business model? How will the current political constriction, brain and human drain, and regional geo-politics affect the country moving forward? In this fascinating conversation with Bassam Haddad, we consider money as a mentality, Syria's political economy, and reflect on the growing drug trade and rentierism. He also shares his experience founding (and naming) Jadaliyya and being the executive director of the Arab Studies institute. Bassam Haddad is the Founding Director of the Middle East and Islamic Studies Program and an associate professor in the Schar School of Policy and Government at George Mason University. He's also the co-founder and editor of Jadaliyya and executive director of the Arab Studies Institute. He wrote “Business Networks in Syria: The Political Economy of Authoritarian Resilience” and co editor of “A Critical Political Economy of the Middle East.” About “Business Networks in Syria: The Political Economy of Authoritarian Resilience”: Collusion between business communities and the state can lead to a measure of security for those in power, but this kind of interaction often limits new development. In Syria, state-business involvement through informal networks has contributed to an erratic economy. With unique access to private businessmen and select state officials during a critical period of transition, this book examines Syria's political economy from 1970 to 2005 to explain the nation's pattern of state intervention and prolonged economic stagnation. As state income from oil sales and aid declined, collusion was a bid for political security by an embattled regime. To achieve a modicum of economic growth, the Syrian regime would develop ties with select members of the business community, reserving the right to reverse their inclusion in the future. Haddad ultimately reveals that this practice paved the way for forms of economic agency that maintained the security of the regime but diminished the development potential of the state and the private sector. ****** ABOUT THE SERIES ****** afikra Conversations is our flagship program featuring long-form interviews with experts from academia, art, ‎and media who are helping document and/or shape the histories and cultures of the Arab world through their ‎work.

This is the third episode in the WGA inspired mini-season. A break from the usual "Directors on Directing," this season is focused on the granular mechanics screenwriting. Each of these conversations were recorded as a part of a remote writer's group that I ran in early 2020. Though they weren't ever intended to be released publicly - given the WGA (and now SAG) strikes, I thought it would be a small act of solidarity to bring our attention back to the work that goes into the creation of the screenplay This episode features a conversation with BASSAM TARIQ. Bassam was born in Karachi, Pakistan, and later migrated to the United States, where he grew up in Queens, New York. His dual-cultural upbringing significantly influenced his work, providing him a distinctive lens through which to explore and portray complex issues related to identity, belonging, and the immigrant experience. Tariq's debut feature film, "These Birds Walk," premiered at South by Southwest in 2013 and was named one of the best indie films of the year by The New Yorker. In 2019, he directed "The Ghosts of Sugarland" - a documentary short he wrote and directed about his post-9/11 high school experience. The film premiered at Sundance in 2019. He then directed "Mogul Mowgli" in 2020, starring Riz Ahmed, which earned rave reviews for its exploration of diaspora identity and the physical and emotional toll of ambition. The film premiered at Berlinale in 2020. Throughout his career, Tariq has consistently demonstrated his ability to deftly intertwine personal narratives with broader societal themes and his profound dedication to storytelling continues to resonate powerfully in the work he creates. In this conversation we specifically discuss page count, finding and maintaining a "voice", the movement from documentary to narrative storytelling, and the importance of protecting your vision.
